We are Belvidere's first and ONLYFTC (First Technical Challenge) Robotics Team. ﻿﻿

FTC is designed for students who want to compete head to head using a sports model. Teams design, build, and program their robots to compete on a 12' X 12' field, in an Alliance format, against other teams. Robots are built from a reusable platform and teams can choose from two programming languages. Teams, including Coaches, Mentors, and Volunteers, are required to develop strategy and build robots based on sound engineering principles, such as rapid prototyping. Awards are given for the competition, as well as community outreach, design, and other real-world accomplishments.-www.usfirst.org
